Once

Combing her hair while crying,
pain in her heart she feels dying.
Life that was once so amazing,
so sad,
now that you're leaving.

Forever you said she once believed,
a promise you did never achieve.
until death you both once sworn,
a Lifetime,
now it's a thorn.

Memory of you we're both sharing,
once joyful Life worth living.
a family together we've all dreaming,
fading,
now we're all grieving.
